"The Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation is a strong and bold partner with our clinical teams to ensure our teams deliver care in optimized environments, with optimal equipment and with the education and [support systems] to provide exceptional care.

For example, the foundation has purchased specific surgical equipment for ambulatory and inpatient patients at Chinook Regional Hospital.

At the same time, they have enhanced the equipment used by home care, public health and ambulatory rehabilitation
teams who help individuals avoid hospitalization or are recently discharged from hospital.

The foundation has also aided many clinical team wellness supports including Schwartz Rounds, led International
Women’s Day celebrations, and helped our teams launch a new computerized charting system.

Finally, the foundation has boldly embraced a transformative vision to support enhanced cardiac care in southern Alberta.”
